Can someone drill a small tank for me?

[MAReefer1]

Is anyone willing to drill a 5.5 gallon for me, I can pay you. I need to have it done next week, its for a school project so im on a pretty tight schedule.

Thanks,
Donal.

What size hole? I have a 2 inch and a drill press, but keep in mind 10 gallon and under can be difficult to drill.

yep, I understand that they can be hard to drill. I wanted one in. holes, would a two in. hole be too much for that size tank?

Could be too big if you want two of em. would take up quite a bit of space, and put a lot of stress on the glass drilling more than one. As far as flow it is way over kill with 2 inch.....

if you can locate a 1 inch, you can bring it by with the tank and i'll drill it, unless someone else offers.

Basically same here, I have a 1 7/8" bit (1" bulkhead) and a drill press.

I'd be happy to TRY, but as I understand it there is a pretty good chance of breaking a tank that small, but it can be done.

Might try Jeremy at CRA, I think they are drilling if it's not to far for ya'.
